Abstract

Paweł and other writers from Przeworsk in the late 15th century History of Przeworsk town became a subject of the basic studies over the years; the first study was devoted to the Tarnowski Family, owners of this town, and the second one to the different areas of the city life in connection with the celebration of the 700th anniversary of its founding. So far there is no monograph presenting development of the municipal chancellery and its personnel, although in the middle of the 15th c., the city council with a mayor operated smoothly. A judicial authority was a bench supported by writers, to whom this article is devoted. Ernest was the first writer of Przeworsk town we know about (before 1450). However, Paweł, a public notary, rector of a local parish school and administrator of the Holy Spirit Hospital held that position the longest time, from 1456 to 1487. Later, in the years 1488–1505 Stanisław, Mikołaj from Brzozowo, Jan from Sandomierz and Walenty Fogel, the latter privately Paweł’s son in law, worked at the municipal chancellery in Przeworsk. In addition to official duties writers were rectors of schools, acted as arbitrators, attorneys and parties’ prosecutors, legal guardians and executors of wills, witnesses of various activities in the secular and ecclesiastical courts. That means that a breakthrough in the process of literacy, which took place at the turn of the15th. became equally large in urban centers as well as in the small towns such as Przeworsk
